MAG to Bring 256-Player Battles to PS3

E3 conference gives the first word on SOCOM creatorís 256-player combat game.

Sony ended its E3 press conference this year with a quick look at MAG, a previously unannounced title from SOCOM creators Zipper Interactive.

The PS3 exclusive, MAG or “Massive Action Game” will feature squads of eight players facing off in massive combat scenarios that up to 256 players could take part in. A brief trailer was played for the game, which showcased a modern day war zone in which many soldiers on foot were assaulted by, among other things, an air strike.

Other major game showcases that took place towards the end of the conference were for the previously announce Infamous and the highly speculated God of War III. Not many details were provided about either, save that they would not be ready for this holiday season.
